Not necessarily. A percentage of those 22 million could have purchased both portables.

 

Or wouldn't have considered to purchase a DS at all.

Well. I think you can pretty much add all of the PSP sales into a "Money Spent on Gaming" category. Since money is finite, Nintendo did not get THAT money, definitely. They would have had a much higher chance of getting any of that money, if people weren't already buying a PSP.
